This is kind of funny because, long before DALL-E, you could Google:

    depressed office worker sitting on toilet, bright lighting site:shutterstock.com

For the casual user looking for surreal entertainment, this is a much more efficient method than going on the OpenAI waitlist, or whatever.

Now Stable Diffusion and friends exist, anyone can make images with a free Google Colab account or their own GPU. It's been democratised and waitlists are a thing of the past.
